Udinese’s Floro Flores Injury Adds To Attacking Woes For Juventus Clash

The Bianconeri have incredibly been dealt another severe blow up front…

Antonio Floro Flores rues a missed chance for Udinese against Polish side Lech Poznan in the Uefa Cup
Having won just one of their past six league fixtures, Udinese are in desperate need of all three points next weekend, when they travel to face the high flying Juventus at the Stadio Olimpico in Turin.

Unfortunately for their sake though, the visiting Bianconeri side are already without a number of key players, including Christian Obodo, Damiano Ferronetti, Simone Pepe and Alexis Sanchez, whilst their captain and talisman, Antonio Di Natale, is set to miss through suspension.

In addition to this, it has also been recently reported that their influential midfielder Gaetano D'Agostino is also certain to miss, due to a right thigh strain.

According to the latest reports from TMW though, the club have been dealt another major blow, with the news that their only remaining notable forward, Antonio Floro Flores, has been ruled out. Scans have proved that his muscular strain is more serious than initially believed, sidelining him for the upcoming fixture.

Against a red hot Juventus back four, including the likes of Fabio Cannavaro, Giorgio Chiellini, Fabio Grosso and Gianluigi Buffon in between the sticks, the Friuli based outfit are going to find it very difficult to score next weekend.
